Ingredients

• 1 can (14 ounces) whole-berry cranberry sauce
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar
• 1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons ground mustard

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the cranberry sauce, syrup, vinegar and mustard. Set aside 1 cup mixture for sauce.

Line a shallow roasting pan with foil. Place ham on a rack in prepared pan. Cover and bake at 325° for 1 hour. Baste with some of the remaining cranberry mixture; bake 35-45 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 140°, basting with additional mixture every 10 minutes. Heat reserved sauce; serve with ham. Yield: 15 servings.
